Experienced only: What have you done with room correction?

You cant correct a room with DSP. I have tried and I can confirm it does not work. It comes back to the time domain response. You can correct tone using EQ but you cant fix ringing which is the real issue. So throw your mini DSP away as it wont work. 

Some of us want perfect sound by cutting corners and using room correction. You cant have it both ways. Perfect sound comes at a cost there is no free lunch you have been warned

Erik,

  My experience with room correction via Velodyne SMS1 can be mostly a good thing if your subs and sats have a chance of being married. If there is no match with those to begin with, then it is same as being shot in the eye with a toothpick by some who say they are sorry but can hardly keep from laughing.

 OTOH, if I leave this task to myself, and a sub full of knobs, I will surely leave out something and not know the difference. 'Oh, there's deeper, fined tuned bass in this recording? I must have tweaked something to the left.'  

I’ve heard TacT (now Lyngdorf) completely transform a couple big $$$ systems to the point where you wouldn’t wanna listen to the system without their RC.  Avoid it at your own risk.  The ONLY reason I didn’t incorporate it into my system until now is because I was writing equipment reviews and couldn’t use it because it wasn’t appropriate for reviewing purposes.  Now that I’m free I’ll be all in for adding some kinda RC. 

I've been using a Velodyne SMS-1 with a pair of HGS-15s to augment KEF Reference 1s with excellent result.  I'm going to try a second SMS-1 in a stereo configuration in which L & R from the Ayre preamp will pass to separate SMS-1s.  RS-232 will connect the SMS-1s so only one needs to be addressed for settings to be applied to both.
